Scientists develop self-propelling nanoparticles that can physically pierce and eliminate drug-resistant bacteria in eye infections, showing success in initial animal studies.

A new twist on a decades-old anticancer strategy has shown powerful effects against multiple cancer types in a preclinical ...

Xu and his team used extracellular vesicles to target DR5 because these nano-sized capsules—about a million times smaller than a T cell—are naturally produced and secreted by virtually all cells.

How can we ensure that life-saving drugs or genetic therapies reach their intended target cells without causing harmful side effects? Researchers have taken an important step to answer this question.
